Idiot visibly embarrassed about my state in public (2,2,6)
I believe the answer is:
go on record
'state in public' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'idiot visibly embarrassed about my' is the wordplay.
'idiot' becomes 'goon' (goon can mean an idiotic person).
'visibly embarrassed' becomes 'red' (someone may blush or go red when embarrassed).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'my' becomes 'cor' (both are expressions of surprise).
'red' placed around 'cor' is 'record'.
'goon'+'record'='GO ON RECORD'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for go on record that I've seen before include "make a formal statement" , "Make a public statement" , "state, officially" .)
